Yes, they do. Every forest fire produces carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide, which combines with rain to make carbonic acid and sulfuric acid.
All natural rain is acidic. Acidic rain is not a new phenomenon. It can be found frozen 500 feet down in the glaciers in the arctic. Every lightning bolt ionizes nitrogen in the atmosphere to produce nitric acid. Lightning causes forest fires and forest fires produce carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide combines with water in the atmosphere to make carbonic acid. Forest fires and volcanoes produce hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide. Hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide combine with water to make sulfuric acid. There are about eighteen hundred thunderstorms on earth occurring as you read this. There are about 80 forest fires at any time in the United States alone. All fauna emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Mount Saint Helens produced more sulfuric acid than all industry in the United States in the past one hundred years. Mount Krakatau that exploded in May 1883 is still spewing out more hydrogen sulfide every day than Mount Saint Helens ever did. Many other volcanoes are generating sulfuric acid every day. Anaerobic bacteria produce hydrogen sulfide. Compared to nature, acid from industry is probably less than 5 percent of the total.
If high sulfur coal is used, it does lead to increasing the acidity of rain. Use of proper scrubbers can help a lot. Unfortunately, many factories in Third World countries do not use any type of scrubbing system.
yes the burning of fossil fuels can result in acid rain
i think it relates because acid rain might have minerals which are also found in fossil fuels. Or those minerals took millions of years to form. THIS was answered by a 9 year old.
Largely, yes - specifically the sulfide compounds in coal.
In short...yes!
Natual gas is the cleanest burning fossil fuel.
Fossil fuel
Co2 is released into the atmosphere and so is sulfur dioxide which causes acid rain
Fossil fuel and it burns
Because neither burns fossil fuel to create energy, and neither causes pollution.
coal is a fossil fuel that burns without giving water vapour.
Coal and oil release sulfur dioxide gas when they burn, which causes breathing problems for living creatures and contributes to acid rain.
Naturalgas
Yes, that is true
coal
Acid precipitation and fossil fuels are related because, acid rain can harm living organisms and fossil fuels are made from the remains form living organisms.
